  title: Everhour Clients API
  description: The Everhour API is a RESTful interface providing programmatic access to time tracking, timesheets, timers, projects, tasks, clients, invoices, expenses, resource scheduling, time off, and reporting data in Everhour. The API accepts and returns JSON (UTF-8 only). All requests are authenticated with an X-Api-Key header carrying an API key found at the bottom of your Everhour profile page. An optional X-Accept-Version header pins a specific API version (the most recent, 1.2, is used by default). The API is labeled BETA by Everhour, meaning some calls can be slightly adjusted; breaking changes are pushed in separate API versions. Time values are in seconds and money amounts are in cents throughout.
